Bioinformatics and Its Scope in Biotechnology

Bioinformatics in microbial biotechnology – a mini review

The revolutionary growth in the computation speed and memory storage capability has fueled a new era in the analysis of biological data. Hundreds of microbial genomes and many eukaryotic genomes including a cleaner draft of human genome have been sequenced raising the expectation of better control of microorganisms. The goals are as lofty as the development of rational drugs and antimicrobial a...

Marine Biotechnology and its potentials in cancer treatment: Review article

Marine environment has unique diversity. More than half of biodiversity lives at sea and oceans. Promotion of science and technology led to the future accession to marine species and study them and finally using marine product in human life. Using marine product for treatment of human malady is one of the most attractive applications of this component. Since cancer is the second mortality agent...

Bioinformatics Education in Pathology Training: Current Scope and Future Direction

Training anatomic and clinical pathology residents in the principles of bioinformatics is a challenging endeavor. Most residents receive little to no formal exposure to bioinformatics during medical education, and most of the pathology training is spent interpreting histopathology slides using light microscopy or focused on laboratory regulation, management, and interpretation of discrete labor...

BIOTECHNOLOGY and its APPLICATIONS

Biotechnology can be broadly defined as "using organisms or their products for commercial purposes." As such, (traditional) biotechnology has been practices since he beginning of records history. (It has been used to:) bake bread, brew alcoholic beverages, and breed food crops or domestic animals (2). But recent developments in molecular biology have given biotechnology new meaning, new promine...
